Chapter 856: Human Spaceflight Moment of Charm (Part 1)
In the classroom of the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters, Polaris Lorna supported her chin with her elbow on the desk, holding a pen in one hand and writing and drawing on the paper. After a while, Bruce Banner walked in, stood on the podium, and cleared his throat, saying:
"Your activity class teacher is sick, this class is changed to physics..."
After speaking, he opened the textbook in his hand and began to lecture.
There were a total of five people sitting in the entire classroom. Besides Polaris, Iceman and Havok were also there. They sat in the corners furthest from the teacher, and at the same time, they were the same distance from Polaris.
The subtle electric waves between the three made Banner feel a bit strange, and Shadowcat, who was sitting not far from Polaris, gave Banner a wink, and Banner understood that the three of them must have quarreled again.
Banner's lecture time was very short, after all, he was also very busy. Most of the time, he lectured on a small section of theory, then let the mutants study by themselves, and when sleeping at night, entered the dream classroom to review this section of theory and check homework.
Although the efficiency of this teaching method was not very high, it was taught more meticulously and could lay a more solid foundation.
In physics class, Polaris listened quite seriously, or rather, she only listened seriously to two subjects: one was physics, and one was geography. As for certain liberal arts courses, besides sleeping, she was winking at other classmates.
But today, other classmates discovered that Polaris appeared a bit listless. She didn't whisper to others after class, didn't even make that kind of cold laugh, and didn't tease Quicksilver. The whole person was like an eggplant beaten by frost.
Iceman wanted to curry favor, so he walked up and asked Polaris: "Lorna, what's wrong with you? Are you not feeling well?"
"Don't bother me." Polaris leaned on the desk and said unpleasantly: "Anyone who is forced to read here every day would be like me..."
"Don't be like this, Lorna, although I don't like Magneto very much, he is doing it for your own good after all..."
"The thing I hate most is this theory of yours!" Polaris turned her head to the side and said: "Everything is for my own good. You really have stayed with Professor X for too long, you talk exactly like him. Stay away from me!"
Havok coughed twice and said: "Bobby, did you hear that? She told you to stay away from her, stop currying favor here. Even if Lorna and I broke up, we still..."
"You get lost too!" Polaris said unpleasantly: "I don't want to see you two right now. Get lost as far as you can!"
Havok and Iceman looked at each other. Iceman shrugged, turned and left, and said before leaving: "Maybe, it's precisely because she broke up with someone that she is like this..."
Havok curled his lips at him, then sat next to Polaris and said: "Don't be like this, Lorna, it was my fault last time, I shouldn't have quarreled with you. Don't be angry anymore. I heard there is a very famous Belgian restaurant in the Manhattan area, let's go eat..."
Polaris rolled her eyes and said: "Stop being self-indulgent, we are done, get lost immediately!"
Havok's face turned black. At this time, Shadowcat walked up to smooth things over. She said: "Alright, Alex, stop provoking her. Don't you know yet? Magneto forced Lorna to come back to school, she has been irritable for several days..."
"If you ask me, Magneto is really..." Havok clicked his tongue and said: "Isn't the Andromeda constellation quite good? We want to go but don't have the chance, yet he actually sent his own biological daughter back..."
Suddenly he felt that the table and chair he was sitting on were shaking. He immediately stood up, stepped back a few steps, reached out his hand and said: "Wait a minute, Lorna, calm down, your ability is a bit out of control, you... adjust yourself... I'm leaving first!"
After speaking, Havok left. Shadowcat sat opposite Polaris, stared at her, and said: "I know you have fire in your heart, but you can't vent it on your classmates. If it really doesn't work, I'll go talk to Professor X and let you go to the universe to play for two days..."
Polaris's eyes lit up and she said: "Really? Oh, my god, you don't know how bored I've been lately! Reading books when I open my eyes, studying when I close my eyes, my brain is full of homework, I'm almost annoyed to death!"
"I'm not one of those kids, I've already graduated from college! And I still have to go back to school to read? Is this reasonable?!" Polaris slapped the table and said: "Originally, I was doing quite well working in the Andromeda galaxy, and the construction of the sky island also had a share of my work. Who knows what Erik is thinking!"
"Don't be like this, Lorna, your father must have his own difficulties. I heard Professor X say that the mutant world hasn't been peaceful lately. He let you come back, maybe it's also to enhance the influence of the Brotherhood..."
"If everyone in the Brotherhood left, and something happened on Earth, no one would tell him. Although it would be best if mutants could move to the Andromeda galaxy, it's not now..."
Shadowcat also supported her chin with her hand and said: "The solar system construction plan is in full swing, and humans walking out of the solar system is only a matter of time. At such a critical moment, if mutants don't keep up, we will really be kicked out of history."
"I understand the principles." Polaris frowned and said, "Before he let me come back, he also said a few words to me. Listen, how rare, Magneto Erik would actually explain to others!"
"We all know that once the news of mutants moving to other galaxies is officially announced, it will definitely cause an uproar. Our current organizational form cannot resist this impact. However, the Brotherhood, X-Men, and other mutant organizations are all scattered soldiers."
"We will never unite, we will never be like ordinary people to exclude others together, instead, we waste a lot of time on internal fighting."
Polaris shook her head with a heavy face and said: "Since I came back, I have been thinking about this problem, but thinking about it, there is no good way."
"Now it depends on who can stand up and truly lead the mutants." Shadowcat said, but afterward, she said worriedly: "I know, many people have this ambition, but they may not have this ability, and many people may not be out of public interest, just for private gain."
"Once mutants believe their words, they are very likely to lead mutants onto an extremely dangerous path of destruction. At such an important juncture, who can guarantee that they will definitely make the right choice?"
The two sighed in unison. Afterward, Polaris spoke up: "Kitty, go persuade Professor X, don't force me to read here anymore. If physics and geography are useful for what I want to do later, that's fine, but what is the use of reading philosophy and grammar? I have already taken these courses in college!"
Shadowcat revealed a smile and said: "Alright, but you have to promise me, if you go to the universe, don't cause trouble, or, I'll just let Professor X find you a job, just like when you were in the Andromeda galaxy?"
Polaris shook her head immediately and said: "My god, don't mention this, you don't know what I experienced in the Andromeda galaxy!"
Shadowcat widened her eyes and said: "Aren't you quite nostalgic for that time? Could it be that there are any unpleasant experiences?"
"You should ask, what experience is pleasant..." Polaris rolled her eyes and said: "I want to go out to work, just because I hate reading more, not because I really like being a porter in the Andromeda galaxy."
After speaking, she brushed the hair in front of her forehead with her hand, then covered her forehead with her hand and said: "You don't know, working under someone like Erik is terrible. He is the worst-tempered, most picky, most unreasonable, most uncommunicative, and most annoying boss in the world!"
Listening to Polaris use several superlatives, Shadowcat shrugged and said: "What can be done? He is your biological father."
"Who knows if it is." Polaris turned her gaze to the other side and said: "Whether it is or not depends on his mouth. When he found me back then, he actually told me that he let Mastermind modify my memory, and he was very righteous. You don't know what he looked like..."
Polaris sighed and shook her head while sighing. Shadowcat smiled again and said: "Didn't Professor X tell you last time? He might be a mental patient, don't be the same as him. Alright, I'm going to find the professor, wait for my good news."
After Shadowcat left, Polaris sighed again. She covered her eyes with her hands. When she closed her eyes, she felt a bit sleepy, slowly lowered her head, and sank into a dream.
Polaris fell asleep on the desk, but didn't have a good dream. She recalled what Magneto said to her when he found her.
Polaris's life experience was also very bumpy. Back then, Magneto Erik and her mother were just ambiguous. The two didn't even officially date, let alone get married. After her mother became pregnant, Magneto didn't know at all.
After Polaris was born, her mother and stepfather took her to take a plane. As a result, the two quarreled because of Polaris's life experience.
At that time, Polaris was still young and couldn't understand what they were quarreling about, but she was scared by their intense tone.
What was even more unfortunate was that Polaris belonged to the batch of mutants with great talent, so her ability awakened very early. After her emotions went out of control, her ability also went out of control.
The out-of-control magnetic control ability affected the parts of the plane, causing the plane to fall directly from high altitude. Polaris's engine ability was not affected, but her biological mother and stepfather both died in the air crash.
At that time, little Lorna was buried in the wreckage of the plane crash. Magneto found her by relying on magnetic fluctuations, and then discovered that he still had a daughter.
Although Magneto didn't know what was going on, he let Mastermind delete this memory of Polaris, covering up the fact that she caused the death of her biological mother and stepfather.
Many years later, because of a series of complex events, Magneto and Polaris met again. And at this time, in order to win over Polaris to join the Brotherhood, Magneto told her the true life experience.
At that time, Polaris didn't believe it at all, especially couldn't accept the fact that she caused the death of her parents. But at that time, Iceman accompanied her and persuaded her. It was also in this period that Polaris joined the X-Men.
But even if Polaris didn't want to admit it, her personality was really like Magneto's, disobedient and very stubborn, completely different from the style of the X-Men.
She couldn't stand staying in the X-Men base all day, having to take care of children one moment, and having to be a good neighbor of the city the next.
Later, Polaris became a part-time X-Man, and later, in a series of complex events, she contacted the Brotherhood again, until now, becoming an awkward free man.
Logically speaking, she was Magneto's daughter and should be welcomed by the Brotherhood, but Polaris couldn't play with that group of people either. Currently, she still has more contact with people on the X-Men side, especially Iceman and Havok.
"Hey! Hey! Lorna, stop sleeping, good news, wake up quickly!"
Shadowcat's voice came. Polaris woke up suddenly, and then found that she was covered in cold sweat.
She seemed to have had a nightmare just now, but couldn't remember the content of the dream. In a trance, she heard Shadowcat say:
"The professor found you a job in the universe, go report to Stark Tower tomorrow first, and then you can go to work." ===== CHAPTER 857 =====
